Synopsis

The first season of Futurama started midway through the television season, so it only contains nine episodes. Simpsons creator Matt Groening is responsible for the show as creator, developer, executive producer, and writer of the first episode, "Space Pilot 3000." The series starts off with a 25-year-old pizza delivery guy named Fry (voice of Billy West) who gets cryogenically frozen and emerges in the year 3000. He ends up working at an intergalactic delivery company for his only living relative, Professor Farnsworth (voice of Billy West). His best friend is the drunken buffoon robot Bender (voice of John DiMaggio), who encourages his baser instincts. Meanwhile, Fry longs to win the heart of spaceship captain Leela (voice of Katey Sagal), the only known living cyclops. The rest of the Planet Express crew consists of Amy Wong (voice of Lauren Tom), Hermes Conrad (voice of Phil LaMarr), and Dr. Zoidberg (voice of Billy West). The side characters of Captain Zapp Brannigan (voice of Billy West), Nibbler (voice of Frank Welker), and Mom (voice of Tress MacNeille) are also introduced during this season. Basically, the crew gets into all kinds of space adventures while making deliveries to other planets. The fast-paced action and humor is wickedly satirical, offering up biting commentary to contemporary existence. Racism, corporate greed, environmental policies, and religion are just a few of the issues tackled in season one. The manic energy is fueled by nonstop pop culture references, with an emphasis on computer- or technology-based in-jokes. Overall, the show is hilarious for fans of The Simpsons and Groening's work in general. ~ Andrea LeVasseur

Love this show! Packaging could be better
August 17, 2015
One of my favorite shows. This box includes all the seasons + the movies: Volumes 1-4, aired on Fox from 1999-2003 Four "straight to DVD" movies (later hacked into episodes for Comedy Central) 2008-2009 Volumes 5-8, aired on Comedy Central 2010-2013 All discs are SD versions, even though 2 of the movies and Volumes 5-8 were released in HD. This set is just a nice outer box that all the retail Volumes were plopped into. The people who will buy this are generally going to be more than casual fans, so I wish they had made more of an effort to give this a special treatment. A limited edition DVD set was released after the movies were all out that was packaged in a model of Bender the robot's head. I would have liked to have seen this complete set have a more special presentation and HD treatment. As is, it's a good way to get the entire series in a good-looking box.

Great series so sorry to see it go away a second time. I never watched Futurama when it was originally on TV. It wasn't until I watched some episodes much later that I was hooked. I haven't been disappointed since.

Great television for the price
September 5, 2015
We got this television in a deal with an XBox One at a great combined price. The size worked well for us as we have limited space. The picture quality is much better than I would expect at the price paid. There are ample inputs and the Smart TV functions work well. Recommend jumping on this television if it is offered in another package deal.

Show is great, Quality of set is Poor
August 19, 2017
Obviously, Futurama is amazing, but almost all of the seasons have one episode that just won't play for some reason. The discs aren't scratched, they are in perfect condition. It is still worth it to me because I have seen all of them so I know what I am missing, but if you haven't I wouldn't buy this.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend

a great set Posted by: cort from: on this is a great set if you like the series it comes in a big box with a slide out box that has sleeves for the discs. there folding sleeves not the terrible sleeves that you can never get the discs out of. its worth the sale price. wish i had waited 3 days to order and hadnt paid the full price. only wish it had the hard plastic regular cases instead.

Perfect Set Posted by: Mejiti from: on This set is exactly what die-hard Futurama fans are looking for: every episode and every movie. An absolute must for the price.

Great series but.... Posted by: Jessi from: on I re-bought the series because I thought it would have the play all feature for all seasons, I was disappointed to find out that seasons 1 & 2 do not. Oh well, now I have a nifty box with slim cases to accompany my original set.
